On June 12, 2026, a US export control directive forced Anthropic to disable Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 worldwide after a narrow jailbreak was found that made the models reveal code flaws. The shutdown was driven by deemed-export rules that treat model output shown to a foreign national as an export, making a global off switch the only compliant option. #Anthropic #ClaudeFable5 #Mythos5 #DeemedExport #USCommerce

Bloomberg reports that Trump may expedite the timeline for imposing tariffs on U.S. copper imports. Initially, the Commerce Department was granted 270 days from February 2025 to investigate and report on the potential tariffs. However, recent developments suggest that these tariffs could be implemented within weeks, significantly ahead of the original deadline. ​ This acceleration has led to a surge in U.S. copper imports, with estimates indicating an influx of approximately 500,000 tons—far exceeding the typical monthly average of 70,000 tons. Traders are rushing to import copper before the tariffs take effect, aiming to avoid the anticipated cost increases. ​ The potential tariffs are part of the administration's broader strategy to bolster domestic copper production, a metal deemed critical for various industries, including electric vehicles, military hardware, and consumer electronics. While the move aims to enhance national production capabilities, it has also introduced volatility in the copper market, with traders attempting to navigate the implications of the impending tariffs. ​ In response to these developments, U.S. companies are exploring alternative sources for copper, considering suppliers from countries like Chile and Peru to mitigate the impact of the tariffs. This shift underscores the broader ramifications of the administration's trade policies on global supply chains and market dynamics. --- More from Trump: * Not many exceptions to April 2 tariffs * All we are doing is reciprocal * I'll likely be more lenient than reciprocate Earlier: Copper futures extend to new all time highs on tariff fears This article was written by Eamonn Sheridan at www.forexlive.com.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump will make his trade deal decisions this week even as separate negotiations with China and the European Union continue, U.S. Commerce chief Howard Lutnick said on Tuesday ahead of Trump’s self-imposed Aug. 1 deadline. U.S. and EU officials were still discussing steel and aluminum tariffs as well as digital services regulations following their framework announced on Sunday, Lutnick told CNBC in an interview, adding that talks with China were also "their own thing". "But for the rest of the world, we’re going to have things done by Friday," he said in the interview. Asked about remaining uncertainties surrounding the U.S.-EU agreement, Lutnick said Trump was working "to get things done now." He said pharmaceuticals were a key part of the EU deal so that medicines made in European countries—home to several major drugmakers—would see their products included in the 15% tariff. "It was important for them to have pharmaceuticals be part of the deal at 15% because President Trump is going to come out in the next two weeks with his pharmaceutical policy, and it is going to be higher," he said.
